Guy across the street just rang my doorbell and handed me two boxes of sealed tapes and turned around and walked back home. He's an IT guy at a police station. Pretty sure these are for dictation. Probably not much for music. Still kind of cool to get free **** because he knows I collect boomers.

Nice! :cool: :thumbsup: The clear bodies were found on the older cassettes. Later, Maxell changed to a black body. The black body version supposedly has better tape stock, but I wouldn't know for sure. I think I still have a couple of sealed, clear bodies. Keep that neighbor happy. :-D

Very nice of your neighbor to give you those tapes. Right On. Those are ferric(type I)tapes. I believe they are leaderless so they just start right away.Police stations most likely used them for suspect interviews. Courtroom recorders use them too. Gonna be decent for music and the price was right. Good score!☺
